River Street will be closed to through traffic 24 hours a day beginning in April and continuing through the summer. Currently, the target closing date is Monday, April 8, which is anticipated to last at least through Labor Day in September 2024.

The closure will allow contractors to install a new water main, stormwater drainage, and electrical duct bank related to the waterfront project and complete other roadway work. There is also work to repair the Cochecho River shoreline next to River Street which was damaged from recent storms.

When the River Street is closed, public parking will also be prohibited on the street. Public parking is available nearby, such as on Henry Law Avenue.

More information about the closure and any detours will be posted later this month.
